People in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Hu and Han respected together

Chapter 303 Open the city gate
Under the city of Chengdu!

Since Liu Yu appeared, Liu Yan even dared to go out of the city to talk face to face with the other party.

When the two sides met, Liu Yu sized Liu Yan up and down. Although Liu Yan looked passable on the surface, but upon closer inspection, he could still find something was wrong. He hesitated and said:
"Jun Lang, your body?"

Hearing this, Liu Yan wanted to scold Liu Yu angrily, but at this time, it was too late to say anything, and finally said angrily:
"I can't die for the time being, but I'm not willing to die now. We are both state shepherds established by the late emperor. I am in Yizhou and you are in Youzhou. That's fine. Why do you want to go back to Guanzhong? If it wasn't for you to lead troops to attack, I might not have fallen to this point!"

Liu Yu's face froze, he opened his mouth repeatedly, and finally said slowly:
"We are all ministers of the emperor, and the emperor has an edict, so we have to return!"

Liu Yan got angry again, inhaled, exhaled, inhaled again, exhaled again, after calming down, he still scolded:
"Pedantry, we are away, the emperor can live a better life, you have returned to Guanzhong, and you have met the emperor, are you satisfied? If the emperor is trapped by rebels, it is useless for you to go back!"

Thinking of what happened in Guanzhong, Liu Yu had to admit that Liu Yan was right. Li Yao, a boy from Liangzhou, had completely controlled the government. After he sighed, he finally returned to the topic:
"I'm here to persuade you to surrender. Now that Li Yao's army has arrived, I want to save the people, and I also want to save your life. If you surrender early, there is still room for turning around!"

Hearing this, Liu Yan endured his physical weakness and mental exhaustion, and directly raised his head and chest, and said imposingly:
"Joke, I'm in Chengdu. I have [-] soldiers and millions of supplies. He, Li Yao, will only be beaten to death. When the Nanzhong barbarians come, together we can drive you out of Yizhou!"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Yu's face did not change, and finally he just sighed:
"Jun Lang, I don't know about soldiers, but I know that you have already been blocked in Chengdu by Li Yao. If you still have the strength, you would have fought back long ago. You will definitely not wait until now. I want to save the people, and I want to save your life. This is true, and you don't have to try again and again!"

This time Liu Yan's face froze. He was indeed desperate. Liu Biao would not help him, the Shu County family would not help him, and it was also unknown whether the Nanzhong barbarians would come. Finally, looking at Liu Yu, he planned to try to believe:

"Li Yao, that kid from Liangzhou, what do you plan to do with us?"

Liu Yu said heavily:
"Take it back to Guanzhong according to the crime of treason, and I will contact the rest of the officials and celebrities to help you speak and intercede for you, so that you can be dealt with leniently, and you have not actually rebelled, so nothing will happen this time!"

The corner of Liu Yan's mouth twitched, looking at Liu Yu, now he wanted to curse, but in the end he held back his anger and said:

"This is for my life, for my whole family's life, and in the future, I am afraid that my lineage will have to expel the family tree!"

Liu Yu was also in a dilemma. One was Li Yao and the other was Liu Yan. He was getting angry at the two ends in the middle, so he said directly:
"Then what do you want to do, is it still possible for you to negotiate conditions now?"

Liu Yan was silent for a moment. If he was healthy, he would definitely fight Li Yao to the end, but now, he only hoped to keep something, and said calmly:

"If you want me to open the city and surrender, I must agree to three conditions!"

Liu Yu frowned, but still said:
"you say?"

Liu Yan clenched his fists tightly, he was not reconciled, but finally said:
"Li Yao must publicly promise to keep my reputation, my identity, and my bloodline. With these three conditions alone, he will be able to obtain Chengdu!"

Liu Yu was helpless, and he could not agree to this:
"I can understand your thoughts, but Li Yao may not agree to the conditions!"

Liu Yan closed his eyes. He was sleepy and tired. It was meaningless to continue. He opened his eyes, stood up and said calmly:
"Then let him attack, I will drag the sick and disabled, and block him out of Chengdu. I don't have a hundred thousand soldiers, but I have a million food, it depends on who can't hold it first!"

After speaking, Liu Yan turned around and walked into the city step by step with heavy steps.

Liu Yu looked at Liu Yan's back and felt tired. How difficult it was for the people of the world, and how difficult it was for the Han Dynasty.

In Chengdu city!

Liu Zhang, Pang Xi, and other Yizhou officials gathered around at this moment, concerned about Liu Yan's physical condition, and at the same time inquiring about what was discussed just now.

Liu Yan's back hurts, and his spirit is also very tired. Now he can only try his best to calmly say:

"Go back and do what you have to do. In Chengdu, we need food and food. It's not easy to be breached!"

As soon as this remark came out, it naturally meant that Liu Yan and Liu Yu had not reached an agreement.

Liu Zhang had a lot of preoccupations. In fact, according to his thinking, it is better to surrender early in exchange for a way out, but Liu Yan still decides in Chengdu.

Pang Xi was very complicated in his heart. He would accompany Liu Zhang to Shu because of the stability of Yizhou. In less than two years, Li Yao led troops to fight here, and he didn't know what his future would be.

As for the rest of the Yizhou officials, except for a few who were truly loyal to Liu Yan and the Han Dynasty, more people began to think about it. Now that the enemy army is outside the city, it is useless to say anything, and they should plan a way out.

At this time, Liu Yan didn't want to say anything, but said:
"Ji Yu, help me go back!"

When Liu Zhang heard this, he stepped forward to support Liu Yan and said:

"only!"

Outside the city, there is no barracks yet!
When Li Yao learned about the process of persuading him to surrender, he smiled and said:

"I have opened up the Shu road and reached Chengdu. Now Liu Yan wants to keep his reputation, keep his identity, and want to be decent, so why didn't he come to Guanzhong earlier, Taiwei, how should I explain to the court and the emperor!"

Liu Yu knew it would be like this, and finally he could only say sincerely:
"I hope the general will show mercy to the innocent people in the city. Once the war starts, what happened in Luo County will definitely happen again!"

Moral kidnapping?

Sorry, I have no morals!
Li Yao waved his hand casually, and said perfunctorily:
"Taiwei, I understand, I will seriously consider it!"

But that night!
A spy was caught in the army, and this spy clamored to see Li Yao, saying that there was something important to tell, but he would not say anything if he did not see Li Yao.

Finally sent the person to Li Yao, Li Yao was rather curious, with a calm expression, and said indifferently:

"You want to see me, what's the matter, tell me now!"

The spy was surprised by Li Yao's youth, but he seemed quite knowledgeable, and he saluted without being humble or overbearing:
"Craftsman Zhang Sheng paid his respects to the general. Liu Yan had no way. He plundered with troops, captured young men, robbed food, murdered people at every turn, and committed all kinds of evil. My master hates such actions and is willing to open the city gate for the general..."

Li Yao became interested when he heard the words. This matter may be false, it is a trap, but it may also be true. The army is overwhelming, and there is always someone who wants to find a way out, so he said again:
"In that case, who is your master?"

After Zhang Sheng hesitated for a moment, he bowed his head and said two names:
"The Zhang brothers, Zhang Su, Zhang Song."

　I have prepared two plans, to fight or not to fight?
